Note: Uptrends is introducing a new navigation menu and Monitor Editor UI. Your interface may look different from the documentation as we reflect these changes. The documentation accurately explains how the features work, even if your interface looks different.
Synthetic monitoring means actively and continuously testing your website or web service for availability, performance, and function. As there are many different things to monitor, Uptrends offers several different monitor types with different set-up options.
Uptrends uses credits to calculate the pricing for different monitoring services. For more information, refer to the credits knowledge base article.
